Here is my younger daughter with her boyfriend. When we started on this path more than two decades ago, there were plenty of naysayers -- including our midwife, some doctors and lots of members of our extended family.

Vegan pregnancy, birth and raising a child vegan from the get go, we had few examples to follow, and lots of people tried to scare us from following our convictions, so I spent time at the medical library (before we had internet) to see what the science actually said -- which ended up reassuring us, and we stayed the course. Not only did our daughter survive our experiment -- but she even found a vegan boyfriend...in KANSAS! The times they are a changing.

So here is our younger daughter all grown up. Our older daughter has written about us, "Forcing" veganism upon her too...you can read her thoughts HERE.
